Jamie Carragher: 'Mesut Ozil is Arsenal's number one man now'

Former Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher has claimed that Mesut Ozil is now Arsenal's "number one man" following the departure of Alexis Sanchez.

  "I would never say Ozil doesn't put in 100%; I think the question has always been whether he does decide the big games, is he the man to take them to big trophies and the Premier League?" Carragher said on Sky Sports News. "That has happened over the last few years, and that has to happen for him to be placed alongside the likes of Dennis Bergkamp and Thierry Henry. But there's no doubt he's now Arsenal's number one man after Sanchez has gone."
